@sanitarium thank you @sanitarium, I don’t think the people here understood her question !  

---

@epp776 if they went to the meetings we discuss it all the time. It's a topic

---

@sanitarium I go to meetings every week, & I’ve NEVER heard that term!  

---

@haema we talk about it a lot on NJ

---

@toein like I said in NJ its discuss in my meetings quite frequently.  

---

A lot of us only do on-line. I had no idea what this poster was talking about--but now that I do, it's turned into an interesting post. I guess it's the old saying, "don't assume anything. "

Answer 2

Hormel precooked bacon at sams! Low points low calorie bread Sarah lee or nature own I think two slices one point. And 2%cheese.  

Answer 3

The behavior part is the o ly part that made me realize you weren't talking about blt. So I had to read the comments to see what else it meant. And oops. I don't count mine  I guess I should. (I've been doing it for about 3 weeks, if that) so glad I found out now!  

Answer 4

1 slice bread instead of 2. eat with a knife and fork.  

Answer 5

I don't think alot of us have any idea what you are talking about. could somebody please enlighten me

@pectoral, Bites, Licks and Tastes

---

@halfblood I had not given that a thought . you learn something new all the time on these WW sites . now to figure out what to do with this information. lol

---

@pectoral, your body tracks them even if you don't! A trip through Costco or Sam's can be a LOT of points if you sample all the goodies!  

Answer 6

Chew gum when you are cooking. running thru Costco, etc.  

Answer 7

I use fit points which is usually over 200 a week. I don't track them.  

Answer 8

Bites, Licks and Tastes (BLT)

Answer 9

I make the Oscar Mayer precook bacon 5 slices Sara Lee 2 slices multigrain bread that’s 6 pts love it

Answer 10

How do I handle bacon, lettuce, and tomatoes? Eat them!  

Answer 11

Okay, the answers are hilarious now that I know what she's talking about.  

Answer 12

I love  lettuce  and tomatoes   

Answer 13

Lettuce wrap! Stuff with bacon tomato and fat free mayo

Answer 14

I just use WW bread

Answer 15

Just remember that it counts! I have a hard time not tasting when I am cooking.  

Answer 16

High fiber bread, spinach and 3 long strips of bacon cut in half . or just make it one cheat meal you only eat it once a month.  

Comments

@linin cheat meals don’t exist on WW

---

@chemotaxis I just create my own sometimes if I want something extra. I know it’s not on the plan. I’m always trying to trick the scale. ‍♀️

Answer 17

Frankly I would just eat it however I wanted with chips n salsa and a ton of water then fast for the next 12-16 hours and go back to counting points for the next 7-10 days and the scale will never see that blt

Answer 18

I meal prep after I eat, that way I am not picking as I am packing

Answer 19

When you are cooking for a group of people you tend to taste the foods you are making to make sure they are seasoned properly, if I do it I count the points, so I usually just have hubby do the tasting!  

Answer 20

I have a huge problem with this too but have committed to tracking everything now. Example: So when I come home with a bag of goldfish crackers I count out little 2 point bag fulls for an accurate snack pack. But I do eat some while I am packing them up so now I count out the first 2 points worth of goldfish and eat those while I'm packing up the rest. Then track that bag of 2points. I then put them in the cupboard with labels for points. I also eat an apple or other fruit while cooking but gum is also a good idea.  

Answer 21

Count them or don't do them in the first place

Answer 22

It depends on what it is and how much I consume of it. One needs to taste food while cooking it. But I try not to do more than is required. If I full on take a big bite or am consistently nibbling while cooking I take a guess at amount and track it.  

Answer 23

If it really is just a BLT, count each as a point. If it’s more than be honest and measure and track.  

Answer 24

Handles with both hands. wait watch eat

Answer 25

I make TBBST's Turkey bacon, baby spinach, & tomatoes. And they tastw just as good!  

Answer 26

I thought you meant the sandwich and I was going to comment, “I just eat it. ”

Answer 27

I do BLT on Romain lettuce so minus the bread. Delish’

Answer 28

Hahaha! Pretty sure you mean Bites, Licks and Tastes. No problem when fixing veggies or fruits, but with sweets it can really add up. I had a leader suggest to count one point per bite. Does cut down on the urge to BLT if you really do track it.  

Answer 29

I try not to use my weekly points and figure it covers the BLT of the week

Answer 30

Ole wellness one point wrap.  

Answer 31

I use Turkey bacon, not so many points

Answer 32

B is for bites, L is licks, T is for taste, I guess you decide if you want to count and track or just for go the extra points and pounds

Answer 33

Are you talking BLT sandwiches or "bites, licks, tastes? "

Answer 34

My husband makes wraps on honeywheat

Answer 35

Have Canadian Bacon instead, much less points & so good

Answer 36

Today I had a turkey sandwich with lettuce & tomato and perhaps one slice of bacon (the kind without nitrates is one point per slice). Use just a little of lite mayo (or FF plain yogurt instead? ) and use two slices of a one point bread. You can have a BLT for 3-4 points.  

Answer 37

I love bacon. About once a week I made 3 slices and count the 5 points. Try low point bread. Low point mayo. Count the points and enjoy!  

Answer 38

I use turkey bacon.  

Answer 39

Center cut bacon is 2pts for 3 slices, center cut bacon is the leanest of the real bacon.  

Answer 40

I think she’s asking about small bites , licks and tastes. Lol how to change that behavior ? It’s a daily struggle

Comments

Now I want a BLT❤️

Answer 41

Replace the bread with whole lettuce leaves, cut thick tomato slices, use just a smidge of mayo, and substitute turkey bacon for pork.  

Answer 42

Those are a huge problem! I need help with this too!  

Answer 43

I mark them down as 3pts and move on

Answer 44

Canadian bacon. way lower in points. Low point bread and avocado instead of mayo!  

Answer 45

Is it more expensive at the stores to buy the food that you need ?  

Comments

@swartsty Carter Tell me about it, I have to buy gluten free. Talk about expensive!  

Answer 46

Make it using lettuce as a wrap, have a couple of slices of low sodium bacon and use a little mayo or greek yogurt.

Answer 48

Answer 49
